Yeah steer clear of Prestige.. They a muppets!! Go to a good Subaru shop and keep those guys in business rather than those giant dealerships that just rip people off..

Yeah, again thanks for all the input everyone, I'm going to check them all out and report back the final price and how well the job was done, for anyone else who is interested (or in my shoes).

Take it there since it's so close to you, they are a good shop and know what they are doing.

I live in Rohnert Park myself (which is basically same town as OP) and we are less than 20 miles South of his home town of Cotati (as stated in location on the profile). When I worked for the gun shop it was located in Cotati as well

thanks for the plug Brucelee, did you get mail from me today? if not it will be there no later than Monday I would think...let me know

I suppose they're probably offering to reimburse for gas and toll for the two hour trip south as well???

Yes I'm sure it will be, I have no doubts they will do a better job than them too. My appt. is on Thursday morning, going to get the whole timing belt service, tensioner, fuel leak fixed, and the A/C looked at. I will let everyone know what the total cost was and what got fixed as soon as I get my car back. Thanks Noah/ LIC crew.
